Life's Recipe - Love LIFE

There are times when you feel your life has problems like no
else’s and that you are not important to anyone. When you start enjoying life
in such trying times, you learn to appreciate the beauty of everything around
you. Nature has given us only one life and the time passed cannot be regained.
Life is short, live it.

Love is rare, grab it. Some people may love you without any
reason and regardless of who you are and what you do; they will go on loving
you. You must appreciate being loved and love back. It doesn’t hurt to declare
your love for someone even if they already know about it. Treating your mom to
that fancy restaurant she always dreamt of going to, taking your niece to a
park and feeding a meal to the roadside kid gives so much love from so many people.

Life brings some moments of anger when you cannot control
yourself. Remember, there is nothing in your nature that you cannot control
without strong determination. Anger is bad, dump it. What you may regret later
should be mended now. Learn self control and meditation that make your life as
well as lives of your fellowmen beautiful.

Each one of us has a weakness that stops us from achieving
our goals. Living a life in fear is not living at all. Also, fear gets you
nowhere and you become its slave for a lifetime. Fear is awful, face it. When
you learn to face fear, gradually you will get over it. Nothing can come in
between your dreams like fear can, so get over it.

Memories are sweet, cherish them. The first time you met
your best friend, your first love, the day your child was born…there are
innumerable memories stored in your brain. However, not all memories are happy
ones. The sad ones can be remembered and thanked for as they have made you
strong. Hence, Life is short, live it. Love is rare, grab it. Anger is bad, dump it. Fear is awful, face it. Memories are sweet, cherish them.
